Celebrate an all-American Presidents' week! Step back in time and follow a Native tradition of fashioning dolls using cornhusks. Wherever corn was grown as a crop, children in both Native American and Colonial American families used husks to fashion dolls. With a knowledgeable interpreter, hand craft your own cornhusk figure--either boy or girl! Learn the legend of the cornhusk figure. Why did it not have a face?
